Abdullah: Those who vote for Modi, should jump into the sea

Srinagar, April 28: National Conference president Farooq Abdullah on Sunday made a statement that raised quite a few eyebrows.

Abdullah said that 'those who vote for Modi, should jump into the sea.' He also added that Kashmir will never be a part of India that is communal in nature.

Farooq, who was addressing a rally in Srinagar said that India can't be communal. "If India becomes communal, Kashmir will not remain with India. People of Kashmir, will not accept communalism," he said.

He said that those who vote for Modi should go jump into the sea. "They say those who don't vote for Modi should go to Pakistan. I say those who vote for Modi should jump into the sea. Why should we go? This is our land," he said.

Abdullah later said that he was only reacting to BJP leader Giriraj Singh's comment.
